In previous versions of SSMS, right clicking on any item in Object Explorer and Start Powershell would take you to the location in SQLSERVER: in a Powershell session. This isn't working in 17 or at my installation. .
The complete message is:
No SQL Server cmdlets found on this computer.
Get the 'SqlServer' module at https>//powershellgallery.com/packages/SqlServer
Start Powershell without the SQL Server cmdlets?
The SqlServer module is loaded correctly but it seems SSMS 17 can't see it. I know that the Sqlserver module has been segregated from SSMS and is a separate install. The Web page in Powershell Gallery indicates that SSMS 17 should be able to access the module.
Get-Module sqlserver -listavailable returns:
C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules.
